Let G be an embedded planar undirected graph that has n vertices, m edges, and f faces but has no self-loop or multiple edge. If G is triangulated, we can encode it using {4/3}m-1 bits, improving on the best previous bound of about 1.53m…

We show that any embedding of a planar graph can be encoded succinctly while efficiently answering a number of topological queries near-optimally. More precisely, we build on a succinct representation that encodes an embedding of $m$ edges…

Let G be a plane graph of n nodes, m edges, f faces, and no self-loop. G need not be connected or simple (i.e., free of multiple edges). We give three sets of coding schemes for G which all take O(m+n) time for encoding and decoding. Our…

In this article we describe a program -- called planar_draw -- to draw maps on oriented surfaces in the plane. The drawings are coded as tikz files that can easily be manipulated and used in latex documents. Next to plane maps -- a case for…

We give explicit formulas enumerating 4-regular labelled and unlabelled one-face maps.

Here we study an efficient algorithm for decoding the topological codes. It is based on a simple principle, which should allow straightforward generalization to complex decoding problems. It is benchmarked with the planar code for both…

We establish a one-to-one correspondence between 1-planar graphs and general and hole-free 4-map graphs and show that 1-planar graphs can be recognized in polynomial time if they are crossing-augmented, fully triangulated, and maximal…

We consider a modified notion of planarity, in which two nations of a map are considered adjacent when they share any point of their boundaries (not necessarily an edge, as planarity requires). Such adjacencies define a map graph. We give…

A planar orthogonal drawing of a planar 4-graph G (i.e., a planar graph with vertex-degree at most four) is a crossing-free drawing that maps each vertex of G to a distinct point of the plane and each edge of $G$ to a sequence of horizontal…

Some nonlinear codes, such as Kerdock and Preparata codes, can be represented as binary images under the Gray map of linear codes over rings. This paper introduces MAP decoding of Kerdock and Preparata codes by working with their quaternary…

For most algorithms dealing with sets of points in the plane, the only relevant information carried by the input is the combinatorial configuration of the points: the orientation of each triple of points in the set (clockwise,…

A classic result of Brooks, Smith, Stone and Tutte associates to any finite planar network with distinguished source and sink vertices, a tiling of a rectangle by smaller subrectangles whose aspect ratios are given by the conductances of…

A map is a connected topological graph cellularly embedded in a surface and a complete map is a cellularly embedded complete graph in a surface. In this paper, all automorphisms of complete maps of order n are determined by permutations on…

The possibilities for new or unusual kinds of topological, locally linear periodic maps of non-prime order on closed, simply connected 4-manifolds with positive definite intersection pairings are explored. On the one hand, certain…

In this paper, we consider the problem of determining in polynomial time whether a given planar point set $P$ of $n$ points admits 4-connected triangulation. We propose a necessary and sufficient condition for recognizing $P$, and present…

We discuss the problem of embedding graphs in the plane with restrictions on the vertex mapping. In particular, we introduce a technique for drawing planar graphs with a fixed vertex mapping that bounds the number of times edges bend. An…

We introduce an encoding for parsing as sequence labeling that can represent any projective dependency tree as a sequence of 4-bit labels, one per word. The bits in each word's label represent (1) whether it is a right or left dependent,…

This work studies certain aspects of graphs embedded on surfaces. Initially, a colored graph model for a map of a graph on a surface is developed. Then, a concept analogous to (and extending) planar graph is introduced in the same spirit as…

There doesn't exists a finite planar map with all edges having the same length, and each vertex on exactly 5 edges.

The number of distinct maps (pre-maps) with a single vertex and valence $d$ is computed for any value of $d$. The types of maps (pre-maps) that we consider depend on whether the underlaying graph (pre-graph) is signed or unsigned and…
